Table Updates Stopped Working

    When updating an existing table, the results do not reflect on the webpage.
    If I preview the table, the updates display, but the existing pages with the shortcodes don’t show the updates.

    I don’t have a cache, I’ve updated WordPress and all Plugins to current versions. I’ve deleted TablePress and Re-Installed with no luck.
    I’ve been using TablePress at this website for 2 years (if that helps)

    What does work:
    I can create a new table and update it
    So I copied over the existing table to a new one, and can make updates (and see the updates that were not being applied) on webpages after I rename the shortcode.

    Any ideas?
    Thanks for the help, Dan

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    This sounds as if TablePress’ internal caching system is somehow not updating. Do the changes become visible when you change a Shortcode to
    [table id=123 cache_table_output=false /]
    ?

    Tobias,

    Thanks. That did fix it. Should I add this to each entry or is there a way to fix the internal Cache?

    Thank you for the help!

    Hi Dan,

    ok, thanks for checking that. It might the best to make this the default then. For that, please add the following code your theme’s “functions.php” file or into a small new plugin:

    add_filter( 'tablepress_table_render_options', 'tablepress_turn_off_table_caching', 10, 2 );
function tablepress_turn_off_table_caching( $render_options, $table ) {
  $render_options['cache_table_output'] = false;
  return $render_options;
}

    Regards,
    Tobias
